Within Teamwork.com, you can use the bulk edit
tasks feature to modify, complete, move, copy,
or delete multiple tasks in a task at
once.
Note: Only users with the project permission to edit all tasks can bulk edit tasks on a project.
In the Table or List area of your project,
click the
options button (three dots) in the top
right and select Bulk Edit
Tasks from the dropdown
menu.
Note: If you have a filter applied
when attempting to bulk edit tasks, it will
only bulk edit those tasks found via the
filter, not all tasks on a project.
In the bulk edit modal, you can select an
action to perform on the tasks: modify, move copy, complete, or delete.
Once you select an action, you can

dropdown to find the specific tasks you want
to update.
